chosen this
one because it had doors on the ground level and he could see the highway. He
didn’t know why, but had watched a great many spy movies to know that a person
wanted to be able to get back out on the road at a moment’s notice.
    Walker had told the man that it was he
and his wife taking up residency in their place. He had no idea what she would
think about that, but right now, didn’t care. After he put her on the bed and
brought in the bags she had handed him, he sat down in the room’s only chair
and looked at her.
    She was beautiful. He had noticed that
before, but now that she was resting and healthy he saw that her skin was a
creamy white with a small amount of freckles spread across her nose and cheeks.
He loved her long hair, red as a blazing sun, and she had the most amazing
colored eyes. He thought he’d never think of them as simply blue again. He then
looked over at the bags.
    He was reasonably sure that one of them
held guns. He skipped over it to look at the other two. One had been in the
truck already and he discovered it had clothes in it. He’d looked before
bringing it in because he wasn’t sure if he should or not.
    The next one held what he thought was a
laptop. It had the shape and weight of one of the midsized ones, but he wasn’t
sure. He didn’t want to snoop, but he did want to know. The last bag was about
medium-sized and though not heavy, he was sure it held things he didn’t want to
know about. He looked back at the one that held most of his attention.
    “They’re guns and ammo.”
    He looked over at her and flushed. He
didn’t want her to think he was some ass who’d gone through her things.
    “You can open it if you want, but after
you do I’m going to leave here. I have to get as much distance between you and
me as I can. He might have someone looking for me.”
    “No.” He got up and stretched and
watched her eyes darken. “You aren’t going anywhere without me.”
    She swallowed twice and his cock leapt. She
might not be as immune to him as he had thought after the fight with Khan. He
moved toward the bed as he took off his shirt. “I’m tired and a little on edge.
I’m going to lie down beside you and you’ll keep your hands off me.” He grinned
when she sputtered. “Then when we wake up, we’ll discuss this relationship. Oh
and by the way, I have the truck keys so unless you want to leave on foot, and
I’m betting you won’t get far, I suggest that you stay put.”
    “You can’t talk to me like that and we
do not have anything to discuss so you’ll give me my keys and—” He took off his
shirt and sat on the edge of the bed. “You can’t do this. Sleep on the chair.”
    “I’m not sleeping in that chair. Move
over and be quiet.” He lay down and pulled the covers over them both. Throwing
his arm over his eyes he waited for her to try and leave or to settle down. When
she lay down as far away as she could, he chuckled. She was not going to be one
of those stay at home and hearth kind of mates, but more the kick his ass for
not taking out the trash kind. He was going to love every minute of it.
    “This isn’t funny. Those bastards play
for keeps and they will kill whoever they can and do whatever it is to get what
they want.”
    He was too tired to try to reason that
out and told her so.
    “It means, jackass, that when they find
me, if they find me, and you’re with me, you’ll be as dead as me.”
    He pulled her into his arms and held her
to him. “Then we’d better not let that happen. Go to sleep, Caitlynne. I’m
seriously tired.”

 
    Chapter Six
     
    Conrad watched the video three more
times, trying to figure out what had happened. He’d been watching the house for
several months and knew that he had the right one. She’d been going in and out
of the shit hole the entire time. What he didn’t know was how her body hadn’t turned
up in the explosion.
    “They found that sleeper you used. His
body was blown nearly thirty feet
